Gene transcription is carried out by RNA polymerases (RNAPs). For transcription to occur, the closed promoter complex (RPc), where DNA is double stranded, must isomerize into an open promoter complex (RPo), where the DNA is melted out into a transcription bubble and the single-stranded template DNA is delivered to the RNAP active site. Using a bacterial RNAP containing the alternative σ54 factor and cryoelectron microscopy, we determined structures of RPc and the activator-bound intermediate complex en route to RPo at 3.8 and 5.8 Å. Our structures show how RNAP-σ54 interacts with promoter DNA to initiate the DNA distortions required for transcription bubble formation, and how the activator interacts with RPc, leading to significant conformational changes in RNAP and σ54 that promote RPo formation. We propose that DNA melting is an active process initiated in RPc and that the RNAP conformations of intermediates are significantly different from that of RPc and RPo. RNA polymerase closed complex (RPc) structure reveals DNA distortions by σ Intermediate complex (RPi) structure reveals the roles of AAA activator DNA distortion and opening are initiated in RPc and RPi before entering the RNAP RNAP conformation in RPi is significantly different from closed or open complex Glyde et al. report structures of σ54-dependent RNA polymerase (RNAP) closed (RPc) and intermediate (RPi) complexes. Promoter DNA distortions occur in RPc and RPi. Transitions from RPc to RPi are accompanied by significant conformational changes in RNAP and σ54. Direct interactions between AAA activators and DNA contribute to DNA distortions.
